From what I can understand, the application that is blocked -- "Themida" is a relatively legitimate application that tries to protect applications from being 'cracked,' but sometimes hackers can use it to try to cover up malware, which is why NOD32 blocks it.

As Matt mentioned, hackers often use these same techniques and AntiVirus programs cannot tell the difference, which results in the false positive...
If in doubt... contact the developer directly... there is a chance that their server may have been hacked and a virus uploaded...
